Chapter 430
The counterfeit worked!
Betty had nervously handed it to Ada. She had been terrified of being found out.
In fact, she had even devised an escape plan in case she was discovered.
Her excuse would involve claiming that she had been deceived by the “friend” who had
given her the
jewelry.
Surprisingly, Ada didn’t realize the jewelry was a counterfeit. She had to thank Alexa’s
disciple, Tyson
Nolan, for that..
Ada even tried the necklace on, grinning from ear to ear.
That was how Ada decided she would work with Berenike Hotel. Just like that, Betty
managed to carve a
spot out for herself in the hotel’s higher management-all without her mother’s help!
That night, Sophia celebrated with Betty on the balcony, popping bottles of champagne.
“Once Ada’s wedding is over and your father entrusts you with full control of the hotel,
you’ll be set on the

*Then we can finally kick that bastard Jasper out of the picture!” Sophia exclaimed, her
hand snaked
around her daughter’s waist.
Her eyes glowed with excitement as she said, “I can’t rely on your sister, but you have
never let me down!”
“Don’t you worry, Mom! Once I secure a spot on the board, I’ll gradually diminish Jasper’s
influence. Then
the entire business will be in our hands!” Betty happily clinked glasses with her mother.
Just then, the butler called from outside the room, “Madam Sophia, Ms. Betty, there’s a
letter for you.”
The women shared a look before going to the door.
“Who is it from?” Betty asked.
“KS World Hotel’s General Manager’s personal assistant cum secretary, Mr. Lynch.”
KS World Hotel? Alyssa Taylor sent them this?
“Thank you. Now leave us.” Sophia took the letter and shut the door.
She opened the envelope to find two invitations to a charity auction for jewelry. She
pursed her lips, her
expression darkened.

“Mom, this doesn’t feel right. That bitch hasn’t made a squeak for nearly two weeks, only
to send this to
us now for seemingly no reason. This isn’t a trap, is it? Betty asked womedy
“Tsk. There’s nothing to fear. Now that Ada has signed the contract to work with us. Alyssa
has no chance
of turning the tides in her favor anymore”
Coincidentally, the evening news on the television began broadcasting about said charty
auction.
“Look, Mom, the event organizer is MINT! Betty exclaimed. “They’re a famous fashion
magazine that has
branches all across the world.
“Countless celebrities got famous all because they were featured on its covers! I cant
believe Alyssa had
them organize this event. She’s going all out! Look, even Ada is joining t
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe hadn’t anticipated that Alyssa, whose reputation had suffered alongside that of KS
World Hotel
would be able to secure MINT. Just how many connections did she have?
Betty’s hands were clenched into fists her nails digging into her palms.
“There’s no use putting bells and whistles on everything. A loss is a loss. Alyssa is only
doing this to keep
appearances up,” said Sophia, scowling
Imre
She added, “We need to attend. She sent us invites, after am not scared of her. This is the
perfect
opportunity to keep an eye on Alyssa too. We have to make sure she doesn’t steal Ada
away again
Alyssa had just finished speaking with MINTs editor-in-chief on the phone and was getting
ready to go
kayaking when Jonah visited.
“Jonah!” she cried happily, running downstairs to leap into his arms.
Jonah welcomed her hug, nearly lifting her from the ground.
